This is it, plain and simple … Whether you’ve been dreaming about your wedding since you were 10 or you swore you would never get married, once you say yes and start planning your wedding, you’re embarking on a journey that will form you, teach you life skills, and give you a whole new perspective on life.
Your New Life … I was one of those girls who thought I did not want a big wedding, a glamorous life, or to be around my kids 24/7, and I definitely was not going to voluntarily put my career on hold. Well, all that changed once I said yes to my very own Prince Charming. I dove into wedding planning bliss with such force that I had to ask, “Who are you, and what have you done with Malena?”
Under the Gazebo … After their 10th Anniversary on a trip with their two children to Jamaica, Malena & David renewed their vows.
My life took a severe turn, but it also calmed me down and made me feel fulfilled and so hopeful about the future! That is what planning a wedding will do. You finally know where and in whose arms you are going to be forever and realize you have a whole new adventure ahead of you.
I looked into the eyes of my loving husband in front of Niagara Falls … and then another husband and then another … each one better looking than the next. We immersed ourselves in the roles of newlyweds, totally in love and oblivious to the fact that we were all “hired help,” that we had probably met each other for the first time on a modeling gig.
The fight about the flower arrangements and décor will be the same fight you will have with your mate over how to decorate your home or what color to paint the walls. The way you include children in your wedding will be an indication as to how you will deal with kids, until you get your own. Your easy-going ways around wedding time will surely be a great asset in your life moving forward and the way you include your family in all your wedding plans will be the way you will include your family in most aspects of your life.
